I will give you just a brief description of the recently completed vehicle project:

Completely Forged-Internals
Custom Twin-Turbo
All new fuel management & supply
Willwood 6-Pot front & back Brakes
Seibon Carbon-Fiber hood and various other carbon pieces inside & out
Coilovers w/ adjustible settings
Custom 3" Exhaust
Tons of 'On-Board' diagnostics

@ 600WHP & 540 ft/lbs torque on 91 octane @ 12/lbs boost!

I went for several runs in this Giant Killer and let me just say it fills every bit as fast as my buddies stupid fast modded Vioer GTS!
This Z has demolished MANY Exotics and Superbikes alike. It is quite simply one of the most stunningly built 350Z's in North AMerica.......... PERIOD!

The car has so much attention to detail that he even opted for a 'spray-on' clear bra to cover his several thousand dollar custom grey-pearl paint job.

Turns a slow-by-nature N/A 350Z into a performer?

The car looks great.

I think this is a work of invested labor and effort.

The owner obviously loved his car enough to take it to the next level. That's the main caveat for me. What kind of cars or bikes the car's destroyed remains relatively unimportant to me.

Ya that. I'm not interested in kill stories - I just like that it looks good, probably performs really well and is a blast to drive. It's good to see people caring for their cars enough to put this type of effort into them.
